The Bible Study Hour

Romans 12:1
We tend to spend a good deal of time trying to motivate ourselves and others. What is it that motivates people? Napoleon used the promise of medals, Churchill used the vision of victory in a seemingly hopeless situation, but what inspires Christians to offer their bodies a living sacrifice to God? Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he explores that question of motivation.

Romans 12:1
Until the cross, sacrifices for sin were dead sacrifices. Jesus’ death on the cross might have been considered a dead sacrifice were it not for the fact that He arose, and because of His sacrifice for us, we are called to become a living sacrifice for Him. Listen as Dr. James Boice describes the qualities necessary to become a living sacrifice for God on The Bible Study Hour.

Romans 12:1
A paradox may be defined as a statement that seems to be contradictory but may--in fact—be true. The Trinity is a prime example—one God existing in three persons. An even greater paradox is that to be a Christian, we must die in order to live. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he delves into this great truth of the faith.

Romans 12:1
The first eleven chapters of the book of Romans are doctrinal in nature, but as the Apostle Paul penned chapter 12 of this letter, he begins to show us how we’re to apply those doctrinal principles. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he begins to show us “how we then should live” from this remarkable epistle.

Acts 28:17-31
In the book of Acts, author Luke set out to give us the history of the spread of Christianity from the earliest days in Judea through the provinces of the known world and onto Rome itself. It covered the ministries of Peter, Stephen and Paul and it is a most unique and remarkable book. Listen as Dr. James Boice completes his study of Acts on The Bible Study Hour. 

Acts 28:1-16
As we draw to the close of our study in Acts, we witness the long-awaited arrival of the Apostle Paul in Rome. And while he’s greeted with a hero’s welcome by fellow believers, his fame soon fades and the apostle finds himself once again, a prisoner for Christ. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he takes us through the fulfillment of Paul’s declaration that, “I must go to Rome.”

Acts 27:1-44
The great storm that overtook the ship carrying Paul to Rome was a literal storm, but it was also an illustration of the storms that come into the life of a believer. At times we think we’re exempt from those storms, but when they break on us with all their fury, where is our anchor? Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he chronicles the storm that nearly succeeded in thwarting Paul’s destiny in Rome.

Acts 25:13-26:32
The Apostle Paul is about to have his third hearing before the authorities of his day, but unlike his previous defenses, this hearing with King Agrippa was to prove more promising, because Agrippa had both a knowledge of Jewish ways and a standing with Rome. Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he takes us through Paul’s defense before Agrippa on his journey to Rome.

John 1:1-4
While the gospel of John gives no account of Jesus’ birth, it does contain a wonderful prelude to that incredible event. John’s narrative doesn’t tell us how He came but why He came and who He is. Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he looks at a passage not often associated with the Christmas season, but one which carries some tremendous implications in the life of a believer.

Genesis 3:15
